Al Jazeera reports that senior Iranian officials warned that Israel will not be immune from an Iranian response in the event of any attack on the nuclear site known as 'Mount Koresh' (also referred to as 'Kolang'), which Israel and the Mossad identify as a nuclear facility. The officials also said Israel is 'warming up political decision-makers in Washington.'
Senior Iranian officials have issued a more explicit warning to Israel, telling Al Jazeera that Israel 'will not be immune' from a response in the event of any attack on the nuclear site known as 'Mount Koresh' (also referred to as 'Kolang'). The officials also stated that Israel is 'warming up political decision-makers in Washington,' according to the report.
The warning follows The Zioneer's earlier report at 23:34 Jerusalem, which noted that Iranian officials had claimed the file concerning the 'Kolang' site was being managed to influence US decision-makers. The latest statement adds a direct threat of retaliation against Israel.
The comments come amid a period of heightened US-Israel pressure on Iran's nuclear program. Over the past week, President Trump stated that Iran's most fortified nuclear facility could be a target for a major attack, and reports have emerged of a US strike near the Bushehr nuclear plant. Israeli officials have also described Iran's nuclear ambitions as the greatest danger, with a military source recently stating that Iran's energy infrastructure is in Israel's crosshairs.
